What Makes It Great

The QMT 80 begins at sunrise on the banks of the St. Lawrence River at the Petite-Rivière-Saint-François quay, climbing immediately to the Massif de Charlevoix before joining the famous Sentier des Caps trail. The route finishes on the highly technical Mestachibo trail at Mont-Sainte-Anne — a truly challenging and technical point-to-point course with spectacular Quebec scenery.
